It is imperative that the ‘Box Abroad’ request form is submitted to England Boxing no less than 14 days before the contest, or within the timescale which is specified in this table. The relevant forms can be found on the Locker under the resources section by clicking here.
Requests taking place from the 1st July need to have all the relevant information for boxers and coaches on the Locker.
Permit requests can be made via the system, with the below video providing a step-by-step guide on how to do so. Alternatively, you can access the PDF step-by-step guide by clicking here.
Please inform us when you have added all boxers, coaches, officials and volunteers by emailing: enquiries@englandboxing.org
By submitting a Box Abroad request, requesters agree to the England Boxing Box Abroad Policy that is available in the resources section on The Locker, or click here to view.
Please be advised that all boxers who attend any event or sparring session from abroad must have an valid BCR1 medical on their profile on The Locker. This is in accordance with the England Boxing Rule, 9.3 Annual medicals, which appears in the Rule Book. Should an annual medical not have taken place then the boxer should not be permitted to box, under any circumstance.
For boxing abroad requests, you must also provide a copy of the club’s travel insurance policy/policies for individuals. The insurance policy must include the following types of cover in order to be acceptable for permission to travel: Medical Expenses Cover, Personal Accident Cover and Personal Liability Cover.
Please note Ryanair does not offer Personal Accident cover, therefore this policy is inadequate for the Boxing Abroad needs and the club will be required to purchase a new policy.
Scottish Boxers and Boxing Clubs
For English clubs visiting Boxing Scotland events:
- a Box Abroad permit IS requried for all Box Cups. Travel insurance is not required.
- a Box Abroad permit IS NOT required for club shows or sparring events.
Please note: England Boxing Boxers and Clubs are not permitted to enter Scottish Alliance club events or spar/box against Scottish Alliance boxers.
Boxing Scotland require any Scottish club attending an England Boxing club show or an England Boxing club either to compete, spar or train, to have a letter of permission to attend.
The permission must sought by the Scottish club attending England. The letter should be requested by the club either prior to or on arrival, showing that there is proper approval for the trip/activities.
A sample of the letter that will be provided can be downloaded here.
It is important that any Scottish club boxing in England has prior permission, as to accept attendance without the relevant permission could potentially put the travelling attendees at risk due to not being insured.
